About Me:
Hello, my name is Tom and my ham radio call sign is KD4WOV.
I am a multi generational Floridian (one or more of my parents were born in Florida)
I have been doing electronics for many years. started out with simple things like playing
with am broadcast recievers and way back in those days i talked to my dad's friends and
relitives on the CB.
I also started listening to Shortwave. WOW that open up a new world. Voices from Around
the World, came thru the speaker loud and clear. To me it was amazing, that a signal
transmitted from a far away place could be heard like they were accross the street. This
is what got me interested in radio and has lead to a life long interest in communications
of all types.
Besides radio, and electronics, I like Theology, science, physics, computers, and good
debates. I also like reading. I have several Kindle readers, A Papper white, Kindle touch,
Kindle Keyboard, and a Kindle Fire 8HD. I like a program called Calibre. It works great
with the kindles and managing content on them.
